Survivors come second

Jewish historian Norman Finkelstein writes:

"In The Holocaust Industry I documented the World Jewish Congress's double shakedown of Swiss banks and Nazi holocaust victims. The mastermind of this plot was a repellent sewer rat named Rabbi Israel Singer who headed the World Jewish Congress. In the appendix to the second paperback edition of my book I stated that Singer won't be stopped 'unless he is finally put where he belongs, behind bars.' It seems that day might not be so far off. In the past year it has been reported that while denouncing the Swiss banks for using secrecy laws to deny Jews access to their Holocaust-era accounts, Singer himself opened up a secret Swiss bank account where he was squirreling away monies pilfered from the World Jewish Congress. Now it seems that the House of Hucksters is beset with yet new scandals."

Jewish newspaper, The Forward, explains:

"The World Jewish Congress is fighting to block publication in Switzerland of a series of magazine articles [by journalist Daniel Ganzfried] that reportedly will contain damaging new allegations about the organization's management and handling of funds.

"Ganzfried, the Swiss journalist, has been sharply critical of Jewish communal efforts to win back Holocaust-era assets, which have roiled Swiss Jews' relations with their neighbours. He said his upcoming articles will be aimed at documenting the shortcomings in that process."

Despite years of abuse, Finkelstein's initial thesis is being confirmed yet again. Leading Holocaust scholar Raul Hilberg has supported Finkelstein's analysis of Jewish organisations' mismanagement and cynicism while trying to negotiate lost funds:

"When I read Finkelstein's book, The Holocaust Industry, at the time of its appearance, I was in the middle of my own investigations of these matters, and I came to the conclusion that he was on the right track. I refer now to the part of the book that deals with the claims against the Swiss banks, and the other claims pertaining to forced labour. I would now say in retrospect that he was actually conservative, moderate and that his conclusions are trustworthy. He is a well-trained political scientist, has the ability to do the research, did it carefully, and has come up with the right results. I am by no means the only one who, in the coming months or years, will totally agree with Finkelstein's breakthrough."

The latest scandal merely confirms Finkelstein's allegations against one of the world's leading Zionist organisations. Their primary interest is not the Holocaust victims themselves, rather obtaining financial reward and spending the money as they see fit, either for themselves or on Zionist projects in Israel.

Like all those who spout without much knowledge, Loewstein is hoping few notice while he refuses the debate.

There is no debate from that corner, so it is just a statement of fact, not an item up for debate.

As for this latest scandal, it just shows the day to day problems that occur when large sums of money pass through the hands of every day people.

While it seems to be of a greater moral concern, it is no more than what has occured in the rape of the arabs by every oil rich royal family, the rape of the indigenous peoples of Americas, Auistrailia, New Zealand, Hawaii, and the rape of Kuwait and Iraq by Saddam.

The lure of money and power and sex is to much for most, including those we feel are above that sort of thing.

I think we'd all prefer ant to crawl in a hole and die. But comparing wishes to addamo, you'll wind up with more addamo.

Depends on what you define as a Jewish Scholars.

Some fools consider fink and chom as such.

_01, I'd perfer one who doesn't use any failing of any particular Jew as a greenlight to post things in an antisemitic manner as is the format of Loewaddamo, Finkaddamo, and Chomaddamo.

"attention whore" was not deletable? I guess it matters who says it. Selective censorship, as in selective morality.

What sort of morality, lucas? I didn't advocate killing, hurting, censoring, or anything else. My preference was requested. I prefer that he crawl back in his hole and die. It is not a morality statement.

For your edification, antisemitism distinctly refers to hatred of Jews. It was coined by a German social scientist to describe this hatred. There is no such thing as semitism.

It is interesting to note that normally only antisemites use that canard in addition to the 'used too often' hollow complaint.

drunk, I was not offended. I was commenting on the double standards of our host, who appears to judge things based on his racist superiority belief's.

No.

Especially as this is the definition of Semitism: a Hebrew or Aramaic vocabulary or grammatical construction brought into the Greek text. Also called Hebraism or Aramaism.


So the word, semitism, has nothing much to do with the definition of antisemitism.

But if your intent is to spread addamo....
